"Portrait of Robert Jenkins" is an exquisite work of art by Hans Hysing, a prominent Swedish-born British portrait artist of the 18th century. While Hysing best known for his portraits of British nobility, his skill becomes evident in this 1739 portrayal of Robert Jenkins, a famed British mariner.

The portrait draws attention to its subject, Robert Jenkins, renowned in history for his involvement in the Jenkin's Ear incident. It was this event, when he allegedly displayed his severed ear before parliament, that intensified the ongoing maritime disputes between England and Spain, culminating in the War of Jenkins' Ear.

In the painting, Jenkins is portrayed as a noble figure boasting an elegant attire typical of his time. Hysing utilized dark colors, and the painted details of the high status clothing reflect the trends of 18th-century fashion. The artist's ability to capture the varied textures and colors of these features illustrate his mastery of the genre.

The painting's background is somewhat vague, drawing the viewer's focus on Jenkins and his demeanor. However, the echo of maritime flavour suggesting his life on sea is there subtly present.

"Portrait of Robert Jenkins" by Hans Hysing simultaneously serves as a valuable historical document and a testament to Hysing's artistry, being a staple in 18th-century British portraiture.
